***NOTE*** After looking at the log, it appeared that I was missing /usr/bin/autoconf. To resolve this issue, I: "cp /usr/bin/autoconf-2.59 /usr/bin/autoconf" which then allowed automake to compile. The question remains, how did autoconf go missing? Is this something portage did? I didn't remove it myself... Maybe it's better to re-emerge autoconf-wrapper, at least this doesn't by-pass portage Similar problem in Bug #78814 (We will have this problem again and again, until we have figured out, what's deleting /usr/bin/autoconf) I did find on the web an instance where something similar was happening, and the solution was to run: emerge -av automake-wrapper I did try this and it didn't fix the problem. ...sorry, I misread your comment...I did NOT try to re-emerge autoconf-wrapper ...only automake-wrapper on another note.....I removed the /usr/bin/autoconf that I copied from /usr/bin/autoconf-2.59 and re-emerged autoconf-wrapper. I then re-emerged automake and it compiled with no problem. That's the wrong way to fix it. /usr/bin/autoconf is supposed to be a symlink to a wrapper script that chooses the executable to use. The same wrapper is used for automake as well. Here's the right way. ln -s /usr/lib/misc/am-wrapper.sh /usr/bin/autoconf ln -s /usr/lib/misc/am-wrapper.sh /usr/bin/automake Now your problems should be fixed. i rev bumped the wrappers so everyone would automagically get them re-emerged |
